Quick Transmigration: Passerby A Gets Entangled with the Male Lead

Xu Zhizhi responded eagerly, "Oh, it's that newly released program—'You Won't Expect This!'"

"Forget it, forget it, I can't explain it to you no matter how long I talk to you. I'll just send you a screenshot and you can take a good look for yourself. I have to rush to buy my brother's merchandise right now, so I won't argue with you anymore." As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Zhizhi hurriedly hung up the phone.

He Zhiyao stared at the screenshot Xu Zhizhi sent on WeChat, her brows furrowing slightly, her mind filled with doubt.

She then forwarded the picture to Jiang Youbai without hesitation, adding a question: "What does this mean?"

However, after a while, she still hadn't received a reply from Jiang Youbai.

At that moment, she suddenly realized that Jiang Youbai should be filming on set at this time, and his phone definitely wouldn't be with him.

Since that day, Jiang Youbai has gone to the film set alone every morning, while He Zhiyao waits until she wakes up naturally before leisurely going there.

One day, He Zhiyao felt that there was nothing important to do on set, so she simply decided not to go.

To everyone's surprise, around noon, Jiang Youbai called, sounding anxious, asking if something had happened and why she hadn't arrived yet.

With no other option, He Zhiyao quickly got into the driver's car and rushed to the film set.

From then on, she would go to the film set every day and do nothing.

Today is perfect; she can go over and ask Jiang Youbai what exactly happened and why she took such action without her permission.

Filled with doubt and dissatisfaction, He Zhiyao rushed to the film set.

As soon as she stepped into the film set, she saw Jiang Youbai waiting for her with a full meal laid out before her.

He Zhiyao was already used to this kind of scene.

She walked over with light steps, sat down naturally, took the chopsticks from Jiang Youbai's hand, and then began to eat without any hesitation.

However, just as He Zhiyao was about to enjoy her meal, her gaze swept over Jiang Youbai and she noticed that he was sitting next to her with a displeased expression on his face.

After seeing the picture He Zhiyao sent him, Jiang Youbai seemed to fall into deep thought, wondering how to get He Zhiyao to agree without being unhappy. As he thought about it, his mood became unusually low.

Seeing this, He Zhiyao continued stuffing food into her mouth while curiously tilting her head back and asking, "What's wrong? Who upset you like this?"

Actually, she originally intended to ask about the variety show first, but she didn't expect that Jiang Youbai would show such displeasure before she even brought it up.

Faced with He Zhiyao's concerned inquiry, Jiang Youbai simply shook his head and replied weakly, "It's nothing!" But his slightly low voice could not hide the true emotional fluctuations in his heart.

Seeing this, He Zhiyao slowly put down her chopsticks, her bright eyes fixed on Jiang Youbai.

Perhaps sensing He Zhiyao's burning gaze, Jiang Youbai finally broke his silence. He sighed softly and said gently, "I saw the screenshot you sent me..."

Looking at the person in front of her who had inexplicably become unhappy because of that matter, He Zhiyao felt for a moment that she was amused by her own anger. She revealed a half-smile and asked in a slightly teasing tone:

"Shouldn't I be the one who's unhappy? So what exactly are you unhappy about?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Youbai raised her head and quickly glanced at He Zhiyao's expression.

Realizing the other person didn't seem angry, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but then, like a child who had done something wrong, he quickly lowered his head and stammered, "I...I'm not upset, I just..."

Seeing Jiang Youbai hesitate, He Zhiyao pressed, "But what?"

Jiang Youbai took a deep breath, as if gathering immense courage, and whispered, "I was just thinking that you might not agree to go on a variety show with me."

After saying this, he bit his lip tightly, anxiously awaiting He Zhiyao's response.

Hearing this, He Zhiyao couldn't help but find it amusing. She thought to herself, "This guy knows he can't possibly agree, yet he still does it. Does he really think I have no temper?"

However, when she saw Jiang Youbai's pitiful appearance, most of her anger instantly dissipated, and her tone of voice unconsciously softened considerably.

"Since you know I won't agree, why did you do it in the first place?"

Jiang Youbai raised her head, looked at He Zhiyao with her big, watery eyes, and explained in a pitiful tone:

"But besides you, I really can't think of anyone else who can go on that variety show with me." That voice sounded so sweet it could melt anyone's heart.

He Zhiyao shook her head helplessly and said, "Isn't there Sister Hong? Why don't you just ask her?"

Jiang Youbai pouted and replied with a mournful look, "She's busier than me, how could she have time to accompany me on the show?"

Sister Hong: I really have to thank you! You're the boss, but I've ended up handling all the big and small matters in the company all by myself!

He Zhiyao: Is this the reason you haven't told her?

Unconsciously, He Zhiyao blurted out what was on her mind.

Jiang Youbai looked guilty and quickly explained, "It's all my fault. I've been busy filming lately and completely forgot to tell you about this. You'll definitely come with me, right?"

After speaking, Jiang Youbai stared intently at He Zhiyao with a cautious yet expectant look.

He Zhiyao was stunned for a moment. She had come to question Jiang Youbai in a fierce manner, but how did things develop to the point where it turned into a matter of confirming whether or not she would travel with him?

Just then, He Zhiyao suddenly heard the pleading voice of System 686 in her mind: "Host, please have mercy and agree to the male lead's request! Look how pitiful he is, he doesn't even have anyone by his side."

Although He Zhiyao wasn't really angry about going to the variety show with Jiang Youbai, she felt a little strange for some reason.

"I understand! Don't worry about it. There are tons of books online, all kinds of genres. If you're bored, you can find some books that interest you online. That way you can not only pass the time but also learn a lot of useful knowledge," He Zhiyao said to the system with a smile.

"Learn more," He Zhiyao added, "like an idiot."

Upon hearing He Zhiyao's suggestion, the system quickly responded: "Okay, host, I will definitely strive to learn more to better assist you in completing various tasks."

He Zhiyao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that if it weren't for this system constantly chattering in her mind and doing more harm than good, she would feel much more refreshed and at ease.

"If you don't want to, then forget it!" Jiang Youbai's initial anticipation plummeted when He Zhiyao didn't respond, leaving him feeling instantly disappointed.
